Amotekun: South East may name security outfit ‘Agu N’eche Mba’ (Tiger That Guards The City) (Photo)

With the recent letter written by Governors of the South Eastern states informing President Buhari of their intention to set up a regional vigilante outfit, there are indications that the outfit may be named Agu N’eche Mba.

Agu N’eche Mba is presently a title that means “The Tiger That Guards The Land”.Other names in consideration are Enyimba which means “Elephant of the land” and Agwo Turu Mbe another Igbo title which means “Snake that strikes a tortoise inside its shell”.

Recall that the South West states have launched a security outfit called Amotekun which means “Cheetah”; and a North coalition recently launched Operation Shege Ka Fasa, which roughly means

“I dare you to attack or surrender”.Only time will tell which name is chosen if final approval is granted for the security outfit.
